I can feel my heart beat in my throat when trying to sleep???!


Question: Any body else experience this? It beats really loud and eventually I fall asleep but when I wake up I'm really shakey, light headed and have zero energy. Sometimes my heart will start to beat really fast right after as well like a panic attack. Seems to really only happen if I nap during the day or if I eat then go to lay down which I know I shouldn't do anyways. Could this be thyroid, heart condtion???

It could be congestive heart failure. When you lay down flat on your back, pressure, from fluid, backs up into your left ventricle and your heart has to work harder to pump blood to your lungs and body. Try sleeping in a recliner. If it is easier to sleep sitting up that could be the problem. However, it can be a large variety of things. Best thing to do is tell you family doctor about it.

I am not going to guess with your life. Seek medical attention. God Bless.
